Bernard Hopkin's could go on to be one of the best trainers of all time. He should consider a career as a trainer.

 

hopkins a g

 

Awesome, the bit at the end was by far the most important imo.

 

Hopkins is going to be a great trainer. Vast knowledge and a strong belief and mentality.

 

B-Hop has already said he doesn't mindteaching peeps a little bit, but that Brother Naazim has already advised him his standards are toohoghso he won't go into training once he's retired.

Hopefully he changes his mind! He's one of the few 'oldschool' operators left, and has forgotten more about pugilism than most men know :deal

 

For proof of this, go visit the general forum

 

Glad to see Hopkins changing his tune about MMA.

 

Fedor uses a stance where he leaves his lead leg out. You have to not put a lot of weight on that leg and you have to know your distance extremely well to stop take downs.

 

The philosophy is the same but the way a boxer or an MMA fighter implements it will be different.

Of course Bhop was giving him knowledge from the sweet sciecne point of view but he understands Rashad is in a different game.....so Rashad can take away the foundation of what Nard was talking about and apply it to his own proffession.

Taking away real-estate, dictating the pace, distance....making moves to get your opponent in the position you want...all are philosophies that can be applied to boxing or MMA. The way you apply them will differ but the outcome should be the same.

 

I hope you mean about forgetting about boxing rather than what B-Hop said ;-)

Here's when B-Hop says it....just in case

Great video a good watch. I'm gonna try that tennis ball idea sounds like i good idea when hitting the heavybag or shadow boxing to get used to keeping your chin tucked.
